Whether it’s the nauseating effects of motion sickness from travel,
vertigo or virtual reality, Reliefband® wearable technology is enabling
chronic motion sickness sufferers to feel confident to live their lives
in full motion. With 30 million chronic sufferers of motion sickness in
the United States, Reliefband Technologies is the leader in providing
neuro-stimulation for the drug-free treatment of nausea.

Genetics can be responsible for as much as 57% of people’s tendency to
get motion sickness1. However, the nausea, retching and
vomiting caused from motion sickness can come from any type of movement
and almost anyone traveling can be at risk during certain conditions.
Cars, trains, boats, cruise ships, planes, amusement rides, vertigo, and
virtual reality when gaming, cause a sensory conflict. This occurs when
one’s vision fools their brain into believing that they’re actually
moving, when, in fact, they’re not moving at all, or vice versa.
Reliefband technology controls that feeling of nausea within minutes.

FDA-cleared, clinically proven and used in hospitals for years, the
wearable Reliefband technology uses the body’s own neural pathways to
naturally control nausea. Delivering gentle pulses to the median nerve
at the P6 pressure point located on the underside of the wrist, the
pulses send signals to the nausea control center of the brain to resolve
the conflict between what we see and what we feel. This groundbreaking
therapy works as well as a leading prescription medication without side
effects such as drowsiness or constipation.

“Since 2014, the Company has demonstrated the viability of our
technology in the Over-The-Counter healthcare market by significantly
growing unit and dollar sales,” according to Nick Spring, President and
CEO of Reliefband Technologies. “Reliefband Technologies has primarily
focused on direct-to-consumer online distribution, and recently, due to
uplifting demand has selectively increased distribution in specialty
retail environments.”

As an experienced and accomplished healthcare CEO and entrepreneur with
a track record of developing startup healthcare business, Nick Spring
believes there is tremendous opportunity for growth with this
technology. “Given the rapid increase in wearable technology and
consumers desiring to manage their health without medications, new
approaches like ours are on the forefront of helping those in need.”
